As you said, If we are not at the last slot, we take the pivot as the max

for the next level of the tree. At this time, “offset < end” is satisfied,

but in the original code, when offset > end, take the pivot as the max.

Please *think again*, it is wrong. The code may have been written
incorrectly
by mistake, not what you said it was written.

It is not possible overflow pivots array, because only when
"while (++offset < end)" is satisfied, we enter the loop body.
So if we access pivots[offset], “offset < end” must be satisfied.
Maybe you need to read the code to know, instead of looking at
the diff.

The modified code looks like this:

        do {
            if (pivots[offset] >= mas->index) {
                max = pivots[offset];
                break;
            }
        } while (++offset < end);
